Renewing a STR Tenant

[Staci Russell]

Hey guys! 

This is my first time posting on this platform and I'm hoping to get some clarification on the following topic. My husband and I welcomed our first 28 day renter in our STR property. They are a great family and they have asked if they can extend for an additional 28 days. We are thrilled but want to make sure we are going about this correctly. To our understanding, short term rentals only allows stays up to 28 days. When our guest books for another 28 days, would she and her family need to vacate our STR for 24 hours before her new 28 day reservation begins? I know there are different rules and regulations for STR vs. long term rentals. Additionally, we she will be signing a short term rental lease agreement off-platform for her next reservation. Anything I should know about when going off platform? I'd appreciate any feedback you have about this. TIA :)
